This is a series of five articles treating about GNU/Linux command line interface as a great way of both exploring and simply using this operating system. It covers basics features of the CLI including file management, pipes, streams, redirections, regular expressions, system variables and more.

No thanks, I would very much prefer to use the following combinations:
1 - (The best to me) gnu screen + rxvt-unicode;
or
2 - (very, very good) mrxvt (0.5.3) + dtach;
Nothing beats the pleasure of be able to detach your section from a particular terminal and come back to it later while everything keeps working in background.
And for gnu screen 4.0.3 there is a patch ("http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?19805") to "correct" the altscreen default behaviour.
Hope the author will publish also the basics of shell programming (not that it is hard to find something on that matter). This is what really makes *n[iu]x so powerful to administrative tasks.
